Configure Automatic Logon for Internet Explorer

If you want to authenticate users without having the Web Agent challenge them for their credentials, have each user configure the NT automatic logon feature of the Internet Explorer browser by changing the security settings.

To configure automatic logon

2. Click one of the following:
   • The View menu (on Internet Explorer 4.x or 5.x)
   • The Tools menu (on Internet Explorer 6.0)
3. Select Internet Options.

   The Internet Options dialog opens.

4. Click the Security tab.
5. Click the correct security zone (internet, intranet, trusted, or restricted).
6. Click one of the following:
   • The Custom radio button (on Internet Explorer 4.x).
   • The Custom Level radio button (on Internet Explorer 5.x or 6.0).
7. Click Settings.
8. Scroll down to the User Authentication section. Under the Logon option, click the Automatic Logon with current username and password radio button.
9. Click OK twice.

   The Security Settings dialog and the Internet Options dialog close. Your settings are saved, and automatic login is configured.
